Update: The maintenance has been completed!
Welcome to 0.18.1! Hopefully you’ll notice some much needed UI tweaks as well as several performance optimizations.
I am still going through things and making sure everything looks good, but so far, I have not detected any major issues (fingers crossed). If you do have any problems, please comment below!

0.18.1 is coming!
As I mentioned in a previous post, this upgrade will require brief downtime. I will try to keep it as short as possible, but I can’t guarantee an exact window, so if you really can’t wait for lemm.ee to be back online, then the best advice I can give is to check back every 5 minutes or so.
As with any update, please be prepared for unexpected side-effects. If we find any major issues, then we can always roll back to good old 0.17.4. If we just find some minor issues, then most likely the overall experience will still be better on 0.18.1, so in that case we stay on 0.18.1 and try to get any potential issues fixed in 0.18.2. In either case, if you see anything weird after the upgrade, please report in the comments!
Another weird thing that’s happening is that the background of every new comment seems to be styled with the highlight color, I am also seeing that behavior on the voyager test instance running 0.18.1-rc4, see here: https://voyager.lemmy.ml/?dataType=Comment&listingType=Local&page=1&sort=Active
First two comments have the highlighted style, the old ones don’t.
(By “new” I mean recent, the highlighted color doesn’t seem to change after “reading” it or replying to it.)
Can confirm.
Had this too. I resolved by changing my theme from browser theme to something else, saving, closing Lemmy and re-opening.
The theme should be accessible under your username > settings
This is using the web as application feature in Android FYI.
Darkly (the regular theme) doesn’t seem to get fixed by doing this, but I tried out darkly compact and it’s working, thanks!
This workaround is no longer working for me :(
Are the comments on your end still showing up properly?
So far, yeah. I’m using darkly pure black currently
